I discuss the relation between harmonic polynomials and invariant theory and show that homogeneous, harmonic polynomials correspond to ternary forms that are apolar to a base conic (the absolute). The calculation of Schlesinger that…
We construct a new class of symmetric algebras of tame representation type that are also the endomorphism algebras of cluster tilting objects in 2-Calabi-Yau triangulated categories, hence all their non-projective indecomposable modules are…
These are the lecture notes of a set of lectures delivered at the 1995 Trieste summer school in June. I review some recent work on duality in four dimensional Maxwell theory on arbitrary four manifolds, as well as a new set of topological…
New universal invariant operators are introduced in a class of geometries which include the quaternionic structures and their generalisations as well as 4-dimensional conformal (spin) geometries. It is shown that, in a broad sense, all…
Some connections between quadratic forms over the field of two elements, Clifford algebras of quadratic forms over the real numbers, real graded division algebras, and twisted group algebras will be highlighted. This allows to revisit real…
We introduce invariant rings for forms (homogeneous polynomials) and for d points on the projective space, from the point of view of representation theory. We discuss several examples, addressing some computational issues. We introduce the…
The purpose of this survey paper is to bring to a large mathematical audience (containing also non-algebraists) some topics of invariant theory both in the classical commutative and the recent noncommutative case. We have included only…
We present an algebraic theory of orthogonal polynomials in several variables that includes classical orthogonal polynomials as a special case. Our bottom line is a straightforward connection between apolarity of binary forms and the inner…
The Tutte polynomial is a classical invariant, important in combinatorics and statistical mechanics. An essential feature of the Tutte polynomial is the duality for planar graphs G, $T_G(X,Y)\; =\; {T}_{G^*}(Y,X)$ where $G^*$ denotes the…
These lecture notes cover 13 sessions and are presented as an e-print, intended to evolve over time. Quantum invariants do more than distinguish topological objects; they build bridges between topology, algebra, number theory and quantum…
The simultaneous invariants of 2, 3, 4 and 5 ternary quadratic forms under the group $\SL(3, {\Bbb C})$ were given by several authors (P. Gordan, C. Ciamberlini, H.W. Turnbull, J.A Todd), utilizing the symbolic method. Using the Jordan…
We consider each of the three classes of representations of cyclic groups that arise in the study of rational sphere maps. We study the possible number of terms for invariant polynomials with non-negative coefficients that are constant on…
This article is a continuation of work on construction and calculation various of modifications of invariant based on the use Euclidean metric values attributed to elements of manifold triangulation. We again address the well investigated…
The present paper is an extension of a previous paper written in collaboration with Markus Reineke dealing with quiver representations. The aim of the paper is to generalize the theory and to provide a comprehensive theory of…
The aim of this article is to introduce invariants of oriented, smooth, closed four-manifolds, built using the Floer homology theories defined in two earlier papers (math.SG/0101206 and math.SG/0105202). This four-dimensional theory also…
In this note we use techniques in the topology of 2-complexes to recast some tools that have arisen in the study of planar tiling questions. With spherical pictures we show that the tile counting group associated to a set $T$ of tiles and a…
We express the reduction types of Picard curves in terms of tropical invariants associated to binary quintics. We also give a general framework for tropical invariants associated to group actions on arbitrary varieties. The problem of…
We introduce new polynomial invariants of a finite-dimensional semisimple and cosemisimple Hopf algebra A over a field by using the braiding structures of A. We investigate basic properties of the polynomial invariants including stability…
This paper investigates the Terwilliger algebra of some group association schemes related to codes. In addition, it also shows the generators of invariant rings appearing by E-polynomials.
We review the construction and applications of exactly Poincar\'e invariant quantum mechanical models of few-degree of freedom systems. We discuss the construction of dynamical representations of the Poincar\'e group on few-particle Hilbert…
